No Chance

Well... the title already gives it a negative connotation, am I right? Let me tell you, I had a semi unfornate event happen to me this weekend. I lost my phone.

Yes, I lost my phone. My connection to the outside world, my family, my friends, and my ticket to always having someone to talk to if I need it. Well.. that was all taken away with one silly game of hide and seek.

I was at my friend Jake's house, who lives in Rockport, for his graduation party. There was a large group of us there, I only knew Jake, but we were all getting along really well. Caytee, a new friend of mine, suggested playing hide and seek in the big field. Yeah, that sounded fun... right?

So, me and Jake decide that we'll be the seekers first. So, we go and we find everyone. Not a big deal. Then, it was our turn to hide with the rest of the group, and a couple other girls were counting/seeking. So he decides we're going to run all the way across this field and hide in a small ditch where there are tons of thorn bushes. Yeah. I'm never letting him choose the place again. Well, we get to the hiding spot, and I realize I don't have my phone. I feel in my hoodie pocket, my jeans pockets, anywhere. I look where we were hiding, I have Jake call hoping that maybe the phone landed face up or was in my pocket after all... but no.

It was dark, raining, the phone was on vibrate, apparently it landed face down, and we were in Rockport. Yeah, not a good situation. There was NO chance whatsoever of finding that phone. The worst part about that was the fact that I had no idea where I was, or how to get home. And if I got lost in Rockport... I would NEVER find my way out. So, I had to stay until midnight so Jake could lead me to Reo, from there it was a straight road.

I got a new phone the next day... so all was well... but still. I wish I still had that phone.
